you guys are losing your minds.
jerome spends the offseason working his ass off, produces a waist - not waste!! - line, and aggravates his tendinitis in the process, and you guys dog him like he's some kind of eddy curry or something !?!?
just remember - it's jerome's lane and you'd best not get caught trying to drive it.
*"Wear and tear, man,"
*(words to live by)
jerome quotes of the day. the best ones, highlighted below, come from eddy curry.
Jerome James not only sat out a portion of Wednesday morning's practice again to rest his knee tendinitis, while on the floor, he scrummed with Curry and aggravated the calf injury that hampered Curry last season. Curry said it's nothing serious and it didn't cost him practice time.
Eddy Curry and Quentin Richardson laughed and jostled each other as they walked off the court. Stephon Marbury grabbed a photographer's camera and started randomly shooting pictures of the media. Players gathered at midcourt for a half-court shooting contest.
Jerome James is already nursing an injury.
As Curry said, "Everything seems back to normal now."That's when Thomas was asked about James, the 7-1, 285-pound, oft-injured backup center who has only been able to practice sporadically because of knee tendinitis. Not what he wanted to see, correct? "Asked and answered," Thomas said.
Jerome James participated in half of the practice, but was on the eliptical machine when the media entered the gym. Curry had a wrap on his calf and he later explained why.
"Jerome James," Curry said. "Anytime Jerome James is practicing, stuff happens."To which one reporter quicky added, "Usually to himself."
